Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. In a mixing bowl, combine the white cake mix, lime Jello powder, egg whites, vegetable oil, and water. Beat for 2 minutes until well blended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Fill each cupcake liner about 2\/3 full with the cake batter. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Be careful not to overbake. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. Once the cupcakes are cooled, spread melted white chocolate over the top of each cupcake. Let the chocolate set while you prepare the frosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat the softened butter with powdered sugar, Kool-Aid powdered mix, and milk until fluffy and smooth, about 3-5 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with your desired tip (such as 6S). Pipe the frosting onto each cupcake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. Immediately sprinkle mini chocolate chips over the frosted cupcakes to resemble watermelon seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8. Serve and enjoy these adorable and delicious watermelon cupcakes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prep Time: 1 hour | Cooking Time: 18 minutes | Total Time: 1 hour 18 minutes | Servings: 24 | Calories per serving: (to be calculated)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Try these delightful watermelon cupcakes for your summer gatherings.
